Larry Flynt: My friend, Jerry Falwell - Los Angeles Times
My mother always told me that no matter how repugnant you find a person, when you meet them face to face you will always find something about them to like. The more I got to know Falwell, the more I began to see that his public portrayals were caricatures of himself. There was a dichotomy between the real Falwell and the one he showed the public.
This is about the last thing I expected to read today, as I’ve been reeling from the death of Jerry Falwell for about a week. Maybe he’s not as much of a reprehensible, bile-spitting representation of a human being as I’d thought. I wish I could have read the story from both ends.
